It's not broken. You just don't understand. Desecrated ground is not poison. Chaos damage is not poison. Poison is a status ailment you get when hit with a monster that can poison you. Just like ignite, freeze, and shock are status ailments. You can read about ailments on the wiki.

So chaos damage over time is not poison?
https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Poison "Poison is an ailment that deals chaos damage over time to the affected target." and Desecrated Ground "Desecrated ground is a detrimental ground effect that deals chaos damage over time", so whats the difference? Desecrated Ground can only be fought with the shit "Steppan Eard"? And dead zombies clouds is what kind of damage? because i died to it too using my cannot be poisoned boots... |

Correct. Poison deals chaos damage over time. Your item says you can't be poisoned. It does not say you are immune to chaos damage. If it were that easy to become immune to chaos damage, why would anybody even use that shavs armour?

Forgive me for being blunt, but I like analogies and having a good sense of logical statements helps in understanding PoE mechanics in general.
" A cow is an animal that has four legs. A dog is an animal that has four legs, so whats the difference? All Poison is Chaos DoT. Not all Chaos DoT is Poison. Two or more things that are under the same category are not necessarily the same thing, despite having the same category. Need game info? Check out the Wiki at: https://www.poewiki.net/

i know but it should turns your immune to chaos damage over time! As poison is chaos over time, it should turns you immune to desecrated ground too... for other chaos "on hit" i use coruscating elixir, but sometimes i run out of charges even using overflowing chalice and die to those stupid poison clouds from zombies or desecrated ground, wich is a ridiculous death!

What's ridiculous is thinking a very common mod "cannot be poisoned" should make you immune to all chaos damage. You realky think a mod you can get on any flask should make you immune to some damage? Should getting a staunching flask make you immune to all physical damage too? Same thing. Bleed is just physical dame so if you're immune to bleed you should be immune to all other physical damage too.

What you said is that "Immune to poison" should actually mean "immune to all chaos damage over time" which doesn't make sense... It's like squares and rectangles. All Squares are rectangles, but not all rectangles are squares. All poison deals chaos damage over time, but not all chaos damage over time is poison. Desecrated Ground is not poison. Caustic Clouds on death are not poison. Poison is poison. If it doesn't say poison, why would you think it was poison?
U MAD?

" Stop being an idiot and read game mechanics again: " " " If this is a hard concept for you to get - it's your fault. Stop calling people who are trying to help "idiots"! Remember, suffering is convenient.
That is why many people prefer it. Happiness requires effort. |
